The two lads stays up
with Mr. Wallace, so when he gets a little stronger they would come
down to Grand Lake. They had a tent and stove, and lots of
provisions.
Sunday, November 1st. - I went with Allan over where be lives, 7
miles from Donald's, 4 miles by the lake, then up the Nascaupee
River 3 miles. My first glimpse of the Nascaupee River. The
Nascaupee River is a nice big river compared to the Susan and
Beaver River, and much wider and deeper. When we came along here
in the summer, we saw this bay where the Nascaupee River comes out
from, from a distance; but we thought it was just only a bay, and
high mountains all round, and we never thought a river came out
from there. So we did not go in there at all. We saw also from a
distance, where Beaver River run out from; but we thought it was
only an island. So we still just went on and followed the map.
It was late in the evening when we got back to Donald's. Donald
and Allan would start off again in the morning to meet the two lads
and Wallace.
Monday, November 2nd. - Donald and Allan meeting Mr. Wallace, they
arrived at Donald's in the evening. Mr. Wallace then told me of
his trip after I left him; but he couldn't remember all, as he at
last lost track of every thing.
